Answer Well received.
When the fixed port number is used according to the reply contents, it works correctly.
Fixing the port number is probably a problem.
You specified port 56207 in the app console as 'http://127.0.0.1:56207'.
OAuth2 authentication is expected to fail if the 56207 port is blocked on the PC or another application is preempting it.
So, when redirecting to Localhost, I want to specify port number which is not used in PC.
I know that 'Google' is not limited to Localhost.

You can choose whatever redirect URI/port you want, but whatever you do choose, you need to pre-register it on the App Console.

Additional questions.
Let's try randomly selecting the port number from "50000 ~ 51000".AppConsole settings should add 1000 or more as below.
http://127.0.0.1:50000
http://127.0.0.1:50001
http://127.0.0.1:50002
http://127.0.0.1:50003
... more ... more ...
http://127.0.0.1:50998
http://127.0.0.1:50999
http://127.0.0.1:51000
Is there a limit to the number of Redirect URIs that can be set in AppConsole?- Greg-DB8 years agoDropbox StaffThere isn't a limit on the number of redirect URIs you can add, but I can't promise that won't change in the future.
